I love this moisturizer! Everything about it appeals to me; I love the texture (A little goes a long way), the scent, the packaging and the way it leaves my skin feeling soft and looking dewy. And it contains antioxidants and SPF 15, which is a plus.

This is my moisturizer...I love the light cucumber scent. It makes my skin "dewy", not shiny or oily. It is expensive, but it lasts and lasts and lasts because you need not use a lot when applying.

This is the first oil-controlling moisturizer WITH a sunscreen not to have broken me out. As a normal/oily skinned person I have never bothered with a sunscreen before, but thanks to this moisturizer I see the error of my ways. As an added bonus I love the cucumber scent.

I love this lotion! I'm in Australia (hot climate) and use it in summer although I don't have oily skin. It leaves my skin feeling very smooth and velvety, and I like the smell. It does leave a somewhat 'shiny' look on your skin, but I prefer the dewy look to a completely matte appearance, and my pores don't sweat with this lotion, unlike many others I have tried. It also contains avobenzone, which protects skin from all types of sun damage. I did go through the bottle quite quickly, which is bad as it is very expensive! This is definitely the best SPF 15+ moisturiser I have tried.

This Daywear lotion is a really great moisturizer with SPF and plenty of antioxidants!! It's very lightweight and sinks right into my skin. It doesn't make my oily skin any oilier, and I'm in love with the cucumber scent! Plus, no breakouts. This is high quality skincare product that I will repurchase.

This Daywear Lotion is very different from the cream. Where the cream is rich and thick, The lotion is light, feels silky, isn't particularly moisturizing or drying, and leaves a matte almost powdery finish on the skin. This wouldn't be the best option for dry skin. The two versions share a light green cucumber-type fragrance. The pump bottle protects the contents from light and bacteria. I like this, but it's expensive for everyday use--and I do use sunscreen everday year-round. If I got this free, I'd be happy to use it! Otherwise, I'll stick with my Olay Complete FF.

Honoursly, i don't like the smell. It's awful to me! It's just an expansive moisturiser with sunscreen only. I don't think the SPF 15 will be suitable for someone who lives in Asean country. I won't purchase this again cause it's really just nothing special with it. Rather to go others such as Olay.

This product left my skin greasy, oily and broke me out too! I saw a picture of myself that someone took when I was wearing this and I looked so shiney and gross that I went home and threw it away! If you have oily skin, stay away because this will only accentuate it!

I really wanted to like this. It has a really pleasant scent and an spf but as with all Estee Lauder skincare the alcohol or some other ingredient irritated my skin. I broke out and had to discontinue using it. I tried several times to use it again and each time I broke out. Too bad :( I have sensitive combination skin.

After finishing two bottles of Lancome's Bienfait UV daytime lotion, I was on the search for the perfect moisturizer. I had read about this product, as a high school student, YEARS ago in Allure magazine. I figured since a magazine recommended it, it had to be good.

Well, unfortunately, although it didn't leave my skin too greasy as with the Lancome moisturizer, the smell became quite nauseating after some time, and I didn't feel it doing anything spectacular to my complexion. Of course, I have to remind myself that this happened years ago, and most likely, either the product or my skin has changed since then. Nevertheless, I have since moved on from Lancome and Estee Lauder to various other skincare lines. Currently, my favorite is Prescriptives (but who knows when that will change?). =)

I love this for the summer! I use the formula for Oily skin even though I have combi skin, if only because it contains less oils than the normal formula. It absorbs wonderfully and I can apply my makeup almost immediately after rubbing the lotion in. The only thing I hate is that disgusting cucumber-ish (or whatever it's supposed to be) scent...GAH. 1 lippie docked for that nauseating smell.

Used this moisturiser on-and-off for a few years due to it's high price tag. It's good and not too oily, face feels smoth and makeup glides on. Scent is ok, but I like the antioxidants in it. Improved my skin over time. Just wish the price will drop abt 20% though. Should last 4-5 months with twice daily usage. Would buy the improved version, DayWear Plus, to try. Hope it's better!

Very nice moisturizing qualities, plumps out the skin with no greasy feeling, lightweight and comforting. Also, it has a special quality of calming touch to the skin - must be the tea tree oil content. Light greenish shade and not-too-offensive, fresh cucumber smell, which helps with the luxurious sensation when applying this (well, only if you tollerate fragrance in the stuff you put on your face). Sleek, classical EL pump bottle, annoyingly non-transparent. Lots of antioxidants (so they say) and decent SPF.

I'm really impressed with this product b/c it goes on so light and there is still SPF coverage. Hydrates my face beautifully and gives it a fresh glow. My face hardly feels oily with this product. The cucumber scent isn't too bad, but I'd prefer fragrance free.

i found this product to be a good basic moisturizer w/ SPF 15. intially, when i was searching for a moisturizer w/ SPF, not many lines carried one. EL was the only line that i had heard about.

i'm on my second bottle and find that when my skin is extremley irritated (from trying other products), EL daywear slightly calms it. it sometimes isn't enough to moisturize my sometimes very dry skin. it also doesn't do anyting to *improve* my skin.

but as i had mentioned before, it is a good basic moisturizer w/ SPF. until i find something better, this will have to do.

Though this did not break me out like Lightsource lotion did, I just gave it a "3" coz it's nothing special. It just provided moisture for the skin. But it did not control oil on my t-zone, did not increase hydration to my face..once washed off, my skin looked thirsty as it was before. Not worth the buy unless one's looking for a moisturizer with sun protection.

I bought this because it supposedly has the makings of a great sunscreen moisterizer - (plenty of antioxidents and titanium dioxide SPF 15). However, this felt like a basic moisterizer that didn't spread too well on the face. My face still felt dry in areas and by the afternoon I had a noticeable shine around my nose and cheek area. I used it for 2 weeks then returned it.
